Exhibit Opening for Living Connections: The Arnold Arboretum and Korea

For more than a century, the Arnold Arboretum has been connected to Korea through plants and scientific exchange. The new Living Connections exhibit brings together rare archival images, living collections, and contemporary partnerships to explore Korea’s botanical heritage and the evolving relationship between the Arboretum and Korean institutions. Living Connections traces a story from early plant exploration to modern collaboration, showing how historic collections continue to support research, conservation, and cultural understanding today. Join us for opening day of this new exhibition in the Hunnewell Visitor Center and lecture hall. The exhibit will be open from 10:00am to 4:00pm on October 24th, with Head of the Library and Archives Lisa Pearson available throughout the day to discuss how she used historic photographs and archives to develop this exhibition. This event will run rain or shine. Registration not required. Living Connections is open daily (except holidays) from October 24 – June 13, 2027. Learn more. This exhibition is sponsored in part by Leslie and Peter Ciampi. Date & Time @ Add to calendar Google Calendar iCalendar Outlook 365 Outlook Live
